By definition, a point/function is differentiable if a point/all points on the function have a derivative that exists. If a point is at a corner or cusp, then it is not differentiable. Also, if the function is not continuous at a certain point, then it is not differentiable at that point. A function is continuous when all points exist on the original function.
